Diagnostics & Patient Engagement Tools
Intraoral Scanner Diagnostics & Patient Engagement Tools
Intraoral scanners can do far more than replace PVS. Incisive Dental helps you unlock the full diagnostic and educational potential of your scanner—so it becomes a tool for case acceptance, patient communication, and proactive treatment planning.
With the right scanner and software tools, you can:
- Analyze occlusion digitally with heat maps
- Visualize bite clearance and interproximal contacts
- Track changes in tooth wear and dentition over time
- Evaluate and adjust your preps in real time
- Reap efficiency gains like automated shade matching technology
This level of visibility improves diagnosis and treatment planning, particularly in restorative and implant cases. Our supported scanners deliver detailed digital occlusal analysis that helps you make faster, more confident clinical decisions.
Seeing is believing. Digital tools help patients understand the need for treatment:
- Use before/after scan comparisons to show disease progression
- Overlay scans for movement tracking or alignment simulation
- Share visuals during consults for higher treatment acceptance
Patients trust what they can see and that drives results.
In addition to better diagnostics, these tools help you broaden your treatment capabilities and deepen patient trust. Practices using Incisive-supported scanners often expand into:
- Wellness scans as part of annual checkups or new patient evaluations
Clear aligners and occlusal guards with fast design and turnaround through digital workflows
- Sleep appliance consultations using airway evaluation tools and digital impressions
- Before-and-after monitoring for smile design, ortho, and wear-related cases
- Implant planning visuals that help educate and convert patients considering surgical options
- Custom appliance workflows like retainers and sports guards
- Ongoing comparison scans to track shifting, bone loss, or case progress over time
When used to its full potential, your scanner becomes a revenue-driving diagnostic tool, not just a replacement for traditional impressions.
